    “Does it infringe on the ability of another person to exercise harmless freedom” if the answer is yes its facism.

    this is not what fascism is.

    fascism is a method of organizing society so that all other institutions serve the interests of the state.

      If there a consensus between all the replies on this post its that there is no single definable definition for fascism that we all agree on.

      For that reason opened with “to me” to give a heads-up that my perspective is my own and you’re free to disagree.

      Mine is very broad, true. But i think many will find yours way to narrow. Much depends on your definition of state.

        if we can’t agree that mussolini defined fascism, then some of us are just being ahistorical.
